Chapter 835: Awaited Salvation

One thought had been bothering Rey for the longest time now.

"Do all Dragons really need to die?"

This question had been amplified ever since he arrived at the Dragon Empire and found a civilization that he wasn't expecting to see. 

Surely, not all of these people were evil monsters who deserved to die… right?

Then, he went to the Academy and found even more reasons to doubt his initial position. Of course, he found many atrocious thoughts and values shared by the Dragons, but strangely enough… he found something else.

Rey found humanity in the Dragons.

It was at that moment that Rey found his answer—even though he tried very hard to still question it.

"No. Not all Dragons need to die."

~SQUISH!~

The Automaton's blade fell on flesh, but it only dug about an inch deep thanks to the flesh that it fell on.

It was Rey's.
